Chances are you're experiencing cystic acne. Unlike zits, acne cysts are a type of infection that forms deep below skin tissue and doesn't easily heal with over-the-counter medicines. Professional treatments for cystic acne are often too pricey or may result in scary side effects like sunken skin.
Sycamore trees have white bark that peels from the trunk in patches. The main trunk of sycamores typically split into two to four large branches that support spreading foliage with a symmetrical shape that can reach 50 to 70 feet in width and 75 to 90 feet in height.
Bark is the first line of defense for a tree. A tree's trunk and branches grow a new layer of wood each year, and the new layer covers the previous yearâs layer. The exterior layer is called the bark surface and is made of waterproof and decay-resistant cork cells. It is a dead layer but has an important function. The inner layer of bark is made of live tissue cells. Stripping bark from a tree branch reduces the tree's ability to protect itself from the environment. The tough outer bark surface protects the tree from diseases, weather, insects, wildlife and pollution damage.
